Every year the local Skeptics Society has a Sasquatch Search camping trip. To date they have found zero evidence of any Bigfoots, but you bring up a good point. Perhaps they are too well camouflaged in their Matt Newsome box pleated hunting colours kilts!

The box pleated kilt is now a North American garment and the Scots have no claim to traditional say over how it is worn.

The OP is satisfied with the answers he has received and has asked that the thread be closed.

I've got a Lady Chrystel Double Box. My kilt is beautifully made and comfy as can be and in Lancashire everybody looks at me oddly no matter what kilt I'm wearing so in my environment, being boxed isn't an issue. The majority of English folk wouldn't know the difference as a kilt is a kilt and they're all skirts to most.

I've also worn it in Scotland and I've had the schoolgirl's skirt comment there (in jest I presume) and that was from another kiltie. This would show I suppose, that it is a common opinion.

I care not a jot personally

I like it and it's me wearing it and if I was sensitive to comments about the kilt or me being kilted, I'd be wearing trousers...

I do take the point however that in Scotland at least. Box pleats my be historic but they are not traditional (in the sense that tradition is a continuing practice of the accepted norm). The 8yd knife pleat really is king.
